    Inside

    Meridian was a really nice place, I quite enjoyed it! I came on a Sunday after church and wasn't expecting it but they were having open mic afternoon that day, so there were several freelance musicians who played. I had a lavender pecan latte and got a cinnamon pecan latte for my mom. I sat on one of the couches; they had plenty of tables and couches. There was a light openness inside, I quite liked the vibe. The bartender/baristas were also very kind and helpful. The area itself is also very cute, right on Main Street in Buda. They do a lot of themed nights as well (live music, trivia, etc) which I really like. I'll definitely come back when in the area again!

    Stopping off at Teal House for a great bite to eat, they tell me I have to go to Meridian to order my London Fog tea. Ok, no problem as there is a convenient shared opening between the two locations, so I just walk on over and place my order at the bar. They have a really nice bar area and there is plenty of seating in the dining area. When my order comes up, I decide to eat my croissant breakfast sandwich there so I wouldn't have to rush, and to also enjoy the meal with my tea. The London fog consists of Earl Grey tea with steamed milk (oat milk in this case) and a vanilla syrup in this case. They didn't go too heavy with the syrup, and I got to choose the milk product I wanted. Overall, this was a great companion to my breakfast sandwich from Teal House, and it was really good at a reasonable price. If you're ever in the area, you should come try Meridian out.

    I will do whatever it takes to go against the direction of Austin traffic-- including finding the perfect coffee shop. My top 3 requirements: 1)open space 2) plenty of seating 3) accessible outlets (serving good coffee is a given). Upon arriving at Meridian, I was pleasantly surprised to find all the boxes checked. You'll notice they have a stage here, and though I'm not much of a live music girlie, I could see myself coming stepping out of my comfort zone if I ever feel inclined to. On either side of Meridian, you have two great breakfast options: Donut Palace or Teal House. Pro Tip: Grab something from Donut Palace if you're looking for a more cost-friendly bite

    Awesome local Buda spot. By morning, an open space cafe with a medicinal store attached offering cool gifts, tinctures, and a bakery with delicious cinnamon rolls. By night, a bar and stage for live music, or perhaps a trivia night. Meridian's menu offers many unique concoctions. I have tried the vanilla pecan latte, post workout matcha, as well as a medicinal heart health mocktail. It's such a cool spot right on main st. Always friendly service as well. Highly recommend stopping by!

    Visited Meridian for a music show in the space was fantastic. Very friendly staff. Nice selection of beverages. Ample seating and standing room. Look forward to see more shows here.

    Oat Vanilla Iced Latte & Campfire Cold Brew
    Anisha G.

    A cute & cozy coffee bar in Downtown Buda that transforms into a cocktail bar at night (I haven't experienced it just yet)! Each table has a QR code for placing orders, and they bring your order to the table once it's ready. I ordered an iced oat vanilla latte with regular sweetness and extra cold foam. The creamy, smooth, and not-too-sweet latte was absolutely DELICIOUS! Probably the best latte I've ever had! My boyfriend had the campfire cold brew. The coffee combined the richness and bitterness of chocolate cold brew with the creaminess of cold foam, the sweetness of honey and brown sugar, and a hint of spice from cinnamon. It was the perfect blend. Although it was a bit chilly inside, I would 100% recommend this spot!

    Chocolate and almond croissant

    You can't go wrong with Sunday brunch here which I would definitely do more if I don't live so far away. My favorite coffee is the hot lavender, mushroom powder latte with oat milk. It's not too sweet and very satisfying to drink hot. My next favorite is turn pecan latte. This one has more intense coffee flavor and tastes amazing. I can't keep track of how many times I've been disappointed with these gentrified areas in Austin selling ridiculous overpriced croissants that tastes no better than buying them at Costco. But the croissants here is next level! It reminds me of Italy actually. Super flakey, crunchy, delicate and tastes incredible! My only nitpick is the filling might be too much. I tried both the almond and chocolate ones. Staff is super nice and the interior is charming and beautiful. If I'm ever close to the south Austin area, I'd drive straight to this coffee shop. It's definitely worth the extra drive.

    The amazing ceiling fixtures that cast light so beautifully.

    A group of us met here to see The Discount Pills play as the Meridian has live music and a nice stage to perform. I'm not familiar with Buda and my GPS was running me in circles. It's on the main road with historic old buildings and in front of the railroad tracks. Easy to find parking and walk over. The menu can be viewed on line and ordering on line is easier and quicker than ordering at the counter. Then it gets brought to your table. My friends who arrived earlier mentioned it was slow ordering at the counter and had an open tab. Drinks can be pricy. Mine was $13 but so good. Coffee and tea is about half that. The place is very old school in vibe and set up with wooden table and chairs but has been updated enough. Friendly staff and good vibes all around.

We started with the "Spirit of the Vine" and a smokey red flight. After Allie's white wine suggestion, I fully trusted her to pick my white wine flight and she did an amazing job! We mentioned that we were on a family camping trip and she sold us on the port wine they make. I usually dislike ports, but this one was just like sitting by the fire eating a s'mores! Smooth, not overly sweet, and soooo good! We sat by the winery's back window and chatted with other patrons. We loved how beautiful the winery was; complete with a cold and hot water station, and to honor those for Memorial Day they had a remembrance table. We can't stop talking about Water 2 Wine. We sincerely hope we get to visit again. Thank you for incredible service and delightful wine.

Ambience was nice with the exception of one toddler on the other side making a little bit too much ruckus. Hopefully a one off. Our food arrived quickly enough. Major Yum yum points across the board for the crawfish dip (super delicious) loaded mashed potatoes (did I mention w Bacon) and the Steak carpaccio. Below par for the Chicken fried steak w potatoes, green beans (flavorless) and I don't know but I expected the Ceviche salmon to be..more. Not entirely a bad experience. I'd be willing to try other items on their menu next time round.

However, when I arrived, no one was at the front, so I had to check in at the bar. I wonder how that process works for dogs that may not follow all the rules and are already in the park. The concept is quite similar to Yard Bar, right down to the mulch. The bar offers canned beer, wine, cider, sodas, and water. The restrooms are porta-potties, but the one I used was clean. The park features many large trees and plenty of shade. Three Rufferees were present at all times, and I thought the use of walkie-talkies was a nice touch. The front desk informs the Rufferees of the dogs' names, which is quite cute. I do wish the bar provided water for humans; instead, you have to purchase a can of Liquid Death. There was ample parking available. Overall, it was a decent experience, and we plan to return when we have more time to make the drive.
